Configurations Up Free trial of G Suite in any cPanel Hosting
I do not recommend using an email account offered by your hosting companies. This is because when you move or change your hosting, migrating your email account can be a problem. Whereas, with G Suite, all you need to do is update the Google Apps MX records. Soft and constant.
I also use the same (G Suite) for my sites. It's been many years and I've never faced any problems.
Also, for entrepreneurs or bloggers looking to get an approved AdSense account, I always recommend using their professional email address to subscribe, which helps in the approval process most of the time.
If you have not yet set up Google applications for your domain, you will love them and find them very useful in the long term. Let's start with this DIY tutorial.
Go to the G Suite test page and click on Start Free Trial
Complete the details to start:
Click Next. On the next page, you will get the domain selection option. In this case, we already have a domain (the free domain that we obtained with Bluehost hosting), so we will select the option that says "Use a domain name that I already bought".
Enter your domain name and click send.
The next step is to select the main email address of the domain. I usually create one with admin@domain.com and then add something to my name. For example, abz@shoutmeloud.com.
If you have a start, you must create one of the following email addresses:
contact@domain.com or sales@domain.com or support@domain.com
Complete other details such as the name of the organization, the address and the alternative email address. When selecting your alternate email address, use something you always have access to, as it will be helpful to recover your passwords if you lose your G Suite login password.
Once you have completed all the details, scroll to the end, read and accept their Terms of use and click on "I accept, create my account".
On the next page, you will be inside your G Suite control panel and you can start by checking the domain:
The first thing that is required here is to verify the ownership of your domain. Here is a video that explains why it is necessary and how you can verify the domain:
There are many ways to verify and I prefer the HTML tag method in alternative methods, which is fast. Simply add the meta tag in the header of your site and it will be verified instantly. If you have purchased a domain from GoDaddy or Enom
Once you have verified your domain, you will receive a congratulatory message similar to "Congratulations, you have successfully verified your domain.com property."
Click on continue. On the next page, you can add more users and configure several settings such as email, calendar and other services that come with G Suite for free.
If you ever get lost, you can always add more users in the "Organization and users" tab.
Once you have done all this, you will be able to access the email account of your Google applications at http://mail.google.com/a/domain.com but you will still not be able to send emails.
You need to update your MX record from cPanel to send emails. You can also enable the SSL function to improve the security of your Google applications by going to Domain Settings> General> SSL.
The configuration of G Suite Wizard in Bluehost
So far, we have verified ownership of the domain and made the basic configuration of the standard Google Apps account.
Now, we need to make some changes to your Bluehost cPanel.
Bluehost offers a Google application assistant that facilitates the configuration.
Any cPanel hosting company can add this assistant to their hosting through this add-on.
Check out Bluehost Hosting.
Log in to Bluehost cPanel and under the domain, click on the DNS zone editor.
On the next page, select the domain name that will display all the DNS records associated with the domain. What interests us here is to configure the MX record that would help us configure Google applications. Remove the existing MX record and see the screenshot below to add the new MX record.

How to configure G Suite in Bluehost cPanel Hosting
Configure G Suite on Bluehost
Most bloggers and freelancers create a free identification of Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail that is good for personal use, but when you are in the professional space it is always a better idea to use a professional email address.
Good examples are sales@domain.com, payment@domain.com and so on. Not only does it add professionalism to your email ID, but it also adds credibility to your email.
Imagine the difference between sending an email using my personal email and the other email through my professional email admin@shoutMeLoud.com. There are no prizes to choose from that would sound more professional and credible.
Most web hosting companies offer an email service based on cPanel, which is free for a limited number of accounts. But if you are looking for more features like hangout, documents, etc., I would recommend G Suite, a Google service.
Here, I am sharing a guide using Bluehost Hosting as an example, which offers cPanel hosting. You can use this tutorial for any other hosting that cPanel offers.
Note: You can also take Bluehost hosting now. Offer a free domain. After buying hosting, you can follow the steps below to set up Google applications.

Register MX Google applications
For any other hosting, you must add this MX record to work on Google applications. You can delete all existing entries under the cPanel MX record:
Since Bluehost offers a practical assistant, we do not need to do it here. But you must enter this manually in any other cPanel hosting that is not offered by the Google application wizard.
Optional step: if you want to use mail.domain.com to access your email accounts (which is practical), simply add the following line in your MX record:
In G Suite Settings> Email> URL, select mail.domain.com as the login URL. It can take up to 48 hours before any DNS change is reflected and you are bee able to use all the features.
In general, I recommend creating the social services specific to your domain, such as Twitter, YouTube, and other social network accounts, using your professional email domain, as it will be convenient when you sell your blog.
